Answer:

A. King Alcinous was likely thankful that Odysseus defeated the cyclops.

Step-by-step explanation:

AN inference is a conclusion that you can reach based on evidence and reasoning, in this case after reading the odyssey, and the events that happen on it, you could think and reason that the King would be thankful that odisseus defeated the cyclops because they had long lasting problems with them that even made them move out of reach from them. The other options are just facts that are true, they need no reasoning from you nor reaching conclusions.
